Thu, 10 May 2018 14:57:49 GMTGents - I started reading about these a while back and been casually looking for one, until recently when I finally found a very nice one. Not sure why I missed the boat when they were in production, because my interests haven't really changed. It's in the process of being shipped to my FFL, so I thought I reach out to those who may have used or owned one in the past, or still do currently, to seek out opinions, thoughts, comments, etc., while I wait its arrival. I pretty much like anything in 22 Mag and have a good supply of ammo on hand, as I already own a few other rifles and revolvers in the caliber. Thanks for your time - Bill in MA

Tue, 08 May 2018 23:24:38 GMTThis is inspired by the stock up thread going at the moment, didn't want to drift the thread too far. But with the shortage as it was we all got what ammo was available and it's only recently for many of us that many choices exist on the shelf. A 22 that that is less picky is a real advantage in a situation like that. Obviously the manual actions won't have feeding issues like the semi-autos do, but I'm mainly concerned with accuracy here.

I know that different guns will "like" different ammo for various reasons (chamber fit, velocity, how loose tolerances for powder measuring were, batch of lead, length of projectile, etc). I also know that a good gun will get more out of subpar ammo than a average gun.

So I was wondering what your experiences have been with ammo and 22s. If you didn't know what type of ammo you were going to get for your 22, which 22 rifle would you use?

Mon, 07 May 2018 01:48:14 GMTThis was from my Grandpa-in-law's estate. They have been sitting on my shelf collecting dust for near 20 years. I am cleaning things out.

I have the Remington Power Nailer along with both .22 & .32 barrels and boxes of nails, along with a big box of different power level blank ammo of both 22 and 32 blanks, all Remington. The cartridges do not have the crimp like some that I have seen.

A question or two before I stick these in the yard sale this summer.

Do the folks that have .32 rimfire use these blanks to make their cartridges?
How can I ship them?

It fills no need for me, although I did blow a few nails in concrete just for fun.

Thu, 03 May 2018 02:03:01 GMTNow that the .22lr shortage is just a bad memory, and availability and price are mostly back to "normal", does anyone else find them self buying a few extra to put on the back shelf?

Now I know some of you all go through more in a week than I do in a year, and some of you are still shooting from when you stocked up big after the Cuban Missile Crisis, but how about the rest of us that just use normal quantities, and previously never gave much thought to having a bunch on hand?

When I've been in Walmart over the last year and see the Federal 550 round packs for under $20, I'm always tempted to buy just one more. I must have 8 or 9 of them on my shelf now. Again, I know that's a tiny drop in the bucket for some of you all, but it's a fair amount for me. It seems to shoot fairly well for my purposes.

I'm sure I'm far from the only one.

Sun, 29 Apr 2018 23:29:31 GMTPosting this in both the rimfire subforum as well as gunsmithing.

Does anyone have a 22 chamber swage I could borrow? I'll gladly pay shipping, both ways, and have it back in a reasonable amount of time.

Picked up an older mkii. Previous owner must have displaced or lost the firing pin stop, rebound spring and support. Needless to say, the chamber is damaged and resulting in stuck cases.

Borrowee Found

Thu, 26 Apr 2018 20:23:07 GMTJust bought one of these from a dealer here in Florida. Have put about 200 rounds thru it without any issues except a couple FTF using Federal 550 bulk ammo. I am really impressed with the quality of this piece. Feels just like my Gold Cup for weight and balance. Here's a pic of it or one like it.
